The Fourth Protocol is a smart spy action/thriller flick based on aFrederick Forsyth novel. The film has a dark atmosphere and is justinteresting enough.
It's not the type film for a big audience because thereare certainly many people who won't like this movie at all. The one andonly reason is because there is not a lot action in it. But the truefilm-fan will definitely enjoy this movie. Michael Caine's character; John Preston, makes the story more interesting.Pierce Brosnan is very convincing as the Russian spy, maybe it's because heplays a typical 'James Bond role'. This film can be described as a dark, smart and thrilling spy flick whichhas it's problems but certainly is worth to watch. RATING: 7/10 Reviewed by Jason Vote: 7/10/10. I wouldn't consider this movie a 'classic' or even particularly 'great', butfor some reason I really enjoy watching this film.
I haven't read the book, however I used to own 'The FourthProtocol'computer game for the Commodore 64, and was vaguely familiar with the basicstoryline. I can't pinpoint what exactly it is I like about this movie, but I did enjoyseeing Michael Caine as a British agent tracking down the nuclear bomb.
Icould probably watch a whole series of films based around his character. Ialso liked some of the other characters and I think it had a good cast ofactors. The workings of government agents was very compelling to watch, butit was good to see that the film wasn't overwhelmed by ridiculous gadgetsand stuck to the drama involved. The 80's technology in the film also had an element of nostalgia about it.This film reminds me of a bygone age of the BBC Micro and Ford transit vans.In fact, I love watching the film just to see the various parts of Englandas well. I liked the fact that its a rather 'quiet' movie, but I do think it neededto be re-edited. Some parts of the film just skimmed through major plotdevelopments without giving them time to breath, and other times the filmwould show a character hopping from various locations in England withoutgiving a sense of the travelling in between. Watching this film would givethe impression that England is only about 10 miles wide!Some elements of the film really needed to be fleshed out a bitmore.

This isn't the sort of movie I would go to a cinema to see, its more of a'Friday night in' movie that I would watch on TV. I would only recommend itto someone if they were die-hard fans of this genre. Reviewed by hbs Vote: 8/10/10. I was quite surprised to see that this movie got a 5.9 rating. I think thatit's a lot better than that. Brosnan is good, the plot is sufficientlytricky to be interesting, and Caine delivers the kind of reliable,excellentperformance that you can count on (at least when the movie isn't total junk- he only seems to phone it in when the movie is entirely hopeless).
Theending is a little abrupt, but I can't find any fault with it other thanthat. (The cast is uniformly strong, too.) Maybe people underrate the moviebecause the movie is low-budget. It looks like a British TV-movie, andmaybeit was, but I find it easy to get past the production values when theactingis good. I've seen it twice, and it holds up to a second viewing.
